Sorry for the delays with my updates, things got a little busy so I was not able to give an update but I did not miss a day. On Wednesday, I did Kenpo X. When I was a kid, my mother got me involved in martial arts so most of the things Tony had on the dvd was very familiar and fun. The exercises in Kenpo X are cardio based consisting of a variety of kicks, punches, and blocking techniques that really causes you to exert yourself. Throughout the workout, I did not really even notice how strenuous it was because it was so fun. The entire experience was nostalgic of my martial arts class as a child. I feel that it is important to note that with Kenpo X, individuals do not need to believe that they will be able to learn martial arts by doing this exercise routine. My theory is that Tony believes that if he is going to have a cardio routine that’s focused on getting your heart rate up, why not make it something fun. In addition, people carry around a lot of stress and anger so what better way to ensure that they get a good exercise as well as release some of that stress and anger by throwing some punches. Even though this was an hour long exercise time just seemed to fly by.
P90X gives you the option of either stretching or resting for day seven. Since I am a pretty busy guy, I decided to use the day for rest in a sense. On Friday, the whole thing restarted as I performed chest, back and ab ripper X once again. This day proved to be pretty difficult since I was still sore from the week prior. Regardless I was able to push through and complete the exercises. Today, I performed plyometrics and I must say I believe I have begun to enjoy these exercises. Each day brings me closer to the goal…day 90.
